Queer Things About Money.

A woman who bought an old fashioned
bureau at a second hand store in Clncn-
natl discovered secret drawer in it
which contained 81 300 in gold and old
bank bills.
Money was so scarce in certain counties
OF southwestern Texas during the earlier
part of the winter that in some instances
the SKINS of javelina hogs were used as a
circulating medium, and 'possum skins
were frequently offered in liquidation of
grocery bills.
Squire Royal, the tax.collector of Tay-
lor county, Pa, took out well-worn over.
coat to sell to an ld.clothes man a few
up in sheet of note paper. The squire
is confident that the money is his own,
but he has no recollection OF having
placed 1t in the pocket.
John Monroe. q young man living
with his widowed sister III the northern
part OF Georgia, was digging hole for Il
potato bin in his cellar the other day, when

by his sisters husband during the war
and subsequently forgotten.
A young farmer in Des Moines county.
Iowa, who had saved up 5000 in bank
bills. wrapped piece Of paper around
them and stuck the roll up the chimney
in his bedroom for safe keeping. One
cold afternoon his mother put stove in
the room and built a rousing fire in it,
and when the young man returned to
supper only the charred remnants of the
notes could be found.
Some months ago lady living in But.
Ter, Ca, through fear of the depreciation
of tramps, put $40 in bank notes in a
pasteboard box and buried it in the yard
near the woodpile. Last week she went
out to get it, and found that box and bills
had been badly mutilated by wood-lice.
She has sent the notes to the banks which
issued them for redemption.

There is no denial that we are needing
rair both for the growing crops and to
mOisten the loose cotton lands for plant
ing. The rainfall of two weeks or more
ago was such a beating one, that 1t ran
off SO rapidly that but little Of 1t was
absorbed by the soil. Since then great
deal Of cotton land has been broken and
rebe dded which cannot be placed in
good condition for planting and germi-
mating until we have q good shower OF
rain. The late corn that was planted
in loose ground since the rain Is being
seriously injured by birds pulling 1t up,
and will require much replanting.
Lands yet unbrOken are very hard and
dry. making the labor Of teams much
greater and dulling the plows rapidly.
A real good shower of rain would be a
blessing to the planters now.-Opelousas
